eMarketer analyst Ross Benes and forecasting analyst Eric Haggstrom ponder the future of the video industry as the streaming wars heat up. How will new services reshape the landscape? What will happen to the quality of TV programming? And when the dust clears, who will be the winners and losers?
In a significant move for the company's larger advertising goals, Amazon is rebranding its barely six-month-old streaming service to further ramp up its ad-supported video strategy.
US advertisers are committing more dollars upfront for linear TV and digital video, however the percentage of digital video ads being sold programmatically continues to increase.
Many Americans believe they will use more subscription services in the future. But when it comes to video streaming, just because there are more options doesn't mean consumers will drastically increase the number of services they're willing to pay for.
Subscription-based video is growing across a broad spectrum of services, from on-demand platforms like Netflix to aggregators that deliver live TV over the internet.
While digital video platforms like Netflix are investing heavily in producing their own original shows, many people prefer to watch licensed content when they stream video.
eMarketer vice president of multimedia Paul Verna and forecasting analyst Eric Haggstrom discuss this year's digital NewFronts. Where do most viewers watch Hulu's content? What are these new "binge ads"? And what did they think of YouTube's presentation?
US marketers will spend $29.24 billion on programmatic video this year, which accounts for 49.2% of all US programmatic digital display ad spending. For the next few years, we expect the portion of programmatic spend that goes to video to remain steady.
In the latest episode of "Behind the Numbers," eMarketer principal analyst Paul Verna and senior forecasting director Monica Peart discuss Hulu: how much it makes in advertising, how its ad-supported and ad-free offerings compare with Netflix and what impact Disney's increased controlling stake has on the platform.
At a time when marketers demand their ads be highly viewable and are agnostic about what device they’ll reach captive users on, video viewing in the bathroom is a diamond in the rough.
At a time when the number of cord-cutters continues to climb, a new report indicates that most folks who ditched their cable TV service don’t miss anything about it.
In today’s “eMarketer Daily Forecast” video, senior forecasting analyst Chris Bendtsen delves into our numbers for digital video ad spending. Watch now.
We forecast that native video will make up 38.1% of US digital video ad spending in 2019, but it won't take a much larger share in the near future.
This year will be the first time that digital ad spending will account for more than 50% of the total US ad market. The majority of digital ad investments will still go to Google and Facebook, but Amazon is gaining ground.
Pandora may be the most popular music streaming service in the US, but it won’t retain the No. 1 spot for much longer. According to our latest forecast on digital music listeners, Spotify will surpass Pandora in terms of users by 2021—one year sooner than we predicted last year.
US digital video ad spending is on track to exceed our previous forecasts, while TV also got a bump thanks to increased political spending in H2 2018.
Hulu’s decision to reduce the price of its most affordable, ad-supported plan will help bring more users—and more ad dollars—to the popular streaming platform.
In the latest episode of "Behind the Numbers," we take a look at the Academy Awards show, which reversed a string of audience losses even as it jettisoned a traditional hosting role. Who was watching, why, and how does digital intersect with the Oscars?
Netflix is still the king of streaming, but will its subscription-based model be able to sustain the business as cheaper, ad-supported platforms enter the streaming space?
Over-the-top video inventory demand is very strong, but the supply of impressions is limited. This has created an opportunity for fraudsters to trick advertisers into buying inventory that does not really exist.
